At one time a rural farming community, this area developed into a mainly residential, suburban community with the advent of the railroad.  The town is very attractive due to its convenient proximity to New York City, the quality of its school system, local amenities, and small town charm.

 

When New York City’s population spilled north of Manhattan during the 19th century, one of the country hamlets in its path was Bronxville, which offered a few scattered structures near the Bronx River, a stop on the New York and Harlem Railroad.  In the ensuing decades, the Village evolved from a tiny settlement of farm, orchard, estate and factory land to become one of the nation’s premiere metropolitan suburbs.

 

Bronxville is a community of graceful homes and streets, virtually all within walking distance of a train station and 28 minutes from the heart of Manhattan.
